Fourth try on a print. Tried to add some adhesive to the bed to get it to stick better. Watched the first two layers and went to bed. Woke up to a printer on strike.

I eventually turned off auto bed leveling because it just doesn’t help much. You still have to manually level the bed, and the correction it adds is kinda negligible. At least the BL Touch does help with the manual leveling process.
@WolfLink @CheeseNoodle I have and Ender 3 S1. On my old CR10 I had similar opinion to you on the bl touch. Since I upgraded the firmware on the Ender some of the new bed leveling stuff has been a handbags. I couldn’t do without it now. Huge reduction in faff.
What firmware are you using? I’ve tried a couple different ones. I think the biggest issue I encounter is the BL Touch measurements seem really off near the edges of the plate, which makes the mesh corrections over correct. I have found the mesh tool helps me manually level the plate better, which is my current workflow.
And that’s just the bed leveling. My extruder keeps clogging to the point that I have to pause the print to do a cold pull multiple times mid-print to get something bigger than about a cubic inch to print. I’m not sure what’s wrong with it. Maybe it’s crappy filament but I’m worried something else is going on.
